At least they only announced it 2 months before release. Some bands announce an album with a first single even longer before a release date.

This...Judas Priest announced their new album back in October for a March 8th release.

This...Judas Priest announced their new album back in October for a March 8th release, and stuck to the 1 single per month formula, which means we didn't get a song until January

"You've got another thing comin'...in 10 months."

[E.H. Ruddock]

Judas Priest in '91 is still one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

I've caused a quote faux pas...The first single was actually released in October...Frak me...Edited.

Judas Priest in '91 is still one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

There are a bunch of incredible concerts included in the boxed set they put out a couple of years ago, and Irvine '91 is one of them. Fantastic gig.

I'm a little more invested in this album not being shit now that i have tickets for the tour..

Do the listening party guests go home with the album? Must be tough for a superfan like the dude who reviewed it outside the venue afterwards to hear it once then have to go months without hearing it again.

They hear it once and that’s it. PJtourkid (the guy that did the on the spot review outside the troubadour) was on a podcast and mentioned that his recollection would likely be insufficient for fans bc he had one run through and they were sent on their way.

What you’ve heard from him will be the most complete “review” until 4/19 or it leaks.

“Fucking thing sucks!!!”

[Ms Harmless]

under 2 months, we can do this

[Jorge]

No, we can't

Plus can we really trust the opinion a man who doesn't know the meaning of the word "Spritzy"?

Superfans are the last people in the world who should get invited to these listening events. No matter whether or not the album deserves praise, they be like "Omg guys, it so rawks, you're gonna love it!! Jamily for life!"

RM should send a contingent of its most jaded and cranky ass members. Now that would be entertainment.

[VinylGuy]

It’s all fake; if they go they would be over the moon

“Best one since No Code!!!

[Ms Harmless]

No, we can't

Yeah I remember watching his reaction to that question live. What a moment for RM.

He did mention that the first two tracks were heavy heavy.

[Mike]

please no

[DeeDee]

With all the ticket prices stuff I've lost a lot of the excitement I had about the new record, tbh.

[WaitingForBluey]

Perhaps after the March Madness tournament is over, we could hold an election.

Which RM member gets to represent the board at the next album listening party?

[dprival78]

i could see a gang of RMers dragging wotman and his pajamas out back for a little talkin' to

I usually order from 10C, but with the $110 price tag with shipping, I delayed, and ordered from Amazon. I may prefer to help a small business, but I saved $50 by ordering through Amazon, nearly all in shipping fees 10C is charging. A damn shame.
